You can join in and ask your questions by visiting our Facebook page, New Forest Heart Cops. Burglaries: No homes have been burgled in October but 11 outbuildings have been broken into and garden tools, power tools and a whacker plate stolen. The areas targeted were Exbury, Minstead, Emery Down, Bramshaw, Lyndhurst, Netley Marsh, Brockenhurst, Brook, Bucklers Hard and Cadnam. Now that British Summer Time is over it is even more important for us to protect our homes because an empty house is much easier for a burglar to spot in the dark. So here’s some advice • Leave lights on to make your home look occupied • Invest in timers that will automatic switch lamps and devices on and off • Gadgets are available that turn your main lights on and off • Help lower your bills with energy saving bulbs • Thieves target homes that look empty • Shut and lock all windows and doors when going out • Only tell people you trust when going away • Now you've protected your home, share our advice with family and friends Theft From Motor Vehicle: 10 vehicles have been broken into the New Forest Heart area in October. The Forest car parks involved were Fritham, Andrews Mare, Ocknell Plain, Eyeworth Pond and Puttles Bridge. One of the reports to police said that “someone has smashed my car window and have stolen her bag which was on the seat of the car”. I know I go on and on about it but please tell people that unfortunately if valuables are left on display they could get stolen. Vehicles parked on the roadside in Minstead, Ashurst, Emery Down and Brockenhurst were also targeted. One had its number plates stolen while another had its exhaust removed in an attempt to steal the catalytic convertor. Luckily the thieves were disturbed and left empty handed. Meanwhile a van stolen from outside an address in Lyndhurst has been found and returned to its owner but a tractor taken from the Bramshaw Golf Club is still missing. Also this month a safe has been stolen from a hotel in Woodlands, several statues and sculptures have gone from a house in Minstead, gin was stolen from a garage in Sway and 2 people have been arrested after the Tesco in Brockenhurst was broken into in the early hours of Tuesday 1st October. In other incidents, a large amount of scrap metal has been stolen from a garden in Ashurst and several fake £50 notes have been used across the New Forest. I’m pleased to say that most people recognised that they were fakes and didn’t part with any money. If you are someone who works with money, the Bank of England website has some really good advice on how to spot a fake note. Also this month a five bar gate was damaged in Brook and a caravan being stored on a site in Cadnam had its windows broken and some of its metal trim removed. During October the Speed Watch team in Lyndhurst surveyed various roads in the village and monitored 771 vehicles and of those 429, so 55 %, were travelling over the 30 mph limit. 84 of those vehicles have received warning letters from the Police for recording speeds of 35 mph or more with one vehicle on Chapel Lane reaching 51 mph. The Speed Watch team in Minstead monitored 565 vehicles travelling along the Stoney Cross Road (C17) and 211 of them, so 37%, were exceeding the 40 mph speed limit. Of those 211, 69 vehicles were travelling at 46 mph or more and have received warning letters from the Police. One vehicle was recorded at 61 mph. The Speed Watch team in Minstead also monitored 175 vehicles travelling along the Mill Lane, Blackwater (U139) and 104 of them, so 59%, were exceeding the 30 mph speed limit. Of those 104, 29 vehicles were travelling at 35 mph or more and have received warning letters from the Police. One vehicle was recorded at 49 mph. October was a somewhat wet month which hampered the Copythorne Speed Watch Team. However, they were able to go out on 4 surveys in both 30 & 40 mph areas. 1317 vehicles were surveyed with 739 travelling over the speed limit. The highest recorded speed in a 30 mph area was 56 mph !!!! In total, the Police have sent out 124 letters to vehicle owners for offences in October. It’s also worth noting that there are fewer speeding vehicles in the 40 mph areas, just 18 during the 1.5 hour survey. Please like and share out new Facebook page. It’s an excellent way for us to keep you up to date with what we do and for us to be able to pass on important information to you immediately. You can find us on Facebook at NEW FOREST HEART COPS. Please keep calling us if you see anything suspicious where you live and remember if you want to tell us about a vehicle then the most important information is the registration number.

  • Consultation Statement New Forest National Park Local Plan 2016
    Consultation Statement New Forest National Park Local Plan 2016 - 2036 May 2018 1. Introduction 1.1 The New Forest National Park Authority is undertaking a review of the local planning policies covering the National Park – currently contained within the Core Strategy & Development Management Policies DPD (adopted December 2010). This review is in response to changes in national policy and the experiences of applying the adopted planning policies for the past 7 years. The review will result in the production of a revised Local Plan covering the whole of the National Park. 1.2 The revised Local Plan will form a key part of the statutory ‘development plan’ for the National Park and will ultimately guide decisions on planning applications submitted within the Park. The Local Plan will set out how the planning system can contribute towards the vision for the New Forest National Park in 2036 and will include detailed planning policies and allocations that seek to deliver the two statutory National Park purposes and related socio-economic duty. 1.3 This Statement is a record of the consultation undertaken during the Local Plan- making process which started in 2015. As required by Regulation 22 of the Town and Country (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012, it sets out who has been invited to make representations on the Local Plan; summarises the main issues raised; and how they have been taken into account during the development of the Plan. The Statement covers the Regulation 18 consultation on the scope and main issues to be covered in the Local Plan review; the public consultation on the non- statutory draft Local Plan published in October 2016; the subsequent consultation on potential alternative housing sites undertaken in June – July 2017; and finally the statutory 6-week public consultation on the proposed Submission draft Local Plan in January and February 2018 (Regulation 19).

  • PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS. the Honour You Have Done Me By
    PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS. By O. G. S. CRAWFORD, F.B.A., F.S.A. HE honour you have done me by electing me as your President for the forthcoming year is one that I appreciate highly and Tfor which I thank you. Like our retiring President, I am a Hampshire man, and we both have a particular affection for the lower reaches of the Test valley, where we live. I shall try, during my term of office, to emulate him and to be present at as many of our Field Meetings as possible ; and I hope that we shall often see him there too. These peregrinations through the country are, in my considered opinion,, of very great value not only to ourselves, but to the County and country. They show people that there are quite a number of people who obviously take an interest in things old and things beautiful, in the physical structure of our country and the earlier forms of life that inhabited it, in the birds and plants that now live here. Without such occasional demonstrations their existence is in danger of being overlooked by those whose eyes have not been opened to the interesting tilings that swarm around them, if they only knew it. To take antiquities only : In the course of my own field-work I have come across several instances outside Hampshire where people have refrained from damage or destruction not from any interest of their own, but simply because they know that others are interested in them; and because they are decent people they respect that interest, even without sharing it.

  • The Streams of the New Forest: a Study in Drainage Evolution
    240 HAMPSHIRE FIELD CLUB THE STREAMS OF THE NEW FOREST: A STUDY IN DRAINAGE EVOLUTION By C. E. EVERARD, M.SC. Introduction. HE area to be discussed in this paper is somewhat larger than that ordinarily known as the New Forest. It extends from Tthe Solent northwards to the River Blackwater, and from the Avon eastwards to Southampton Water. The superficial gravel deposits of the New Forest have been the subject of much detailed morphological analysis in recent years {1, 2, 4, 5), and it has been shown that two ' flights' of gravel terraces exist (Figure 2), the larger descending southwards from. the summit area of Black Bush Plain (420ft. O.D.) towards the Solent, and the other flanking the Avon valley. These terraces mark the main pauses in the uplift of the area from its low level in the late Pliocene and since that time the landforms and drainage pattern have been evolving concurrently, under the influence of the intermittently-falling base-level. The gravel-terrace stages make it possible to trace the former courses of the Rivers Avon and ' Solent n across the New Forest and also the shore-lines of the estuaries which partly replaced them in the southern part of the area. The present New Forest streams are the much modified descendants of the tributaries of these major drainage channels. * The tributaries were, in many cases, too small to produce terraces, but two lines of evidence may be followed in attempting to re­ construct their former courses. Firstly, the development of the tributaries is intimately connected with that of the major arteries, and much is already known about the evolution of the latter.

  • Exbury Egg Nearly Stepping on a Bird’S Nest Wouldn’T Inspire Most of Us to Build an Egg-Shaped Structure
    Exbury Egg Nearly stepping on a bird’s nest wouldn’t inspire most of us to build an egg-shaped structure. But then, not all of us are like artist Stephen Turner, who specialises in artistic explorations of envi- ronmental settings. This interest means he spends long periods of time in odd, abandoned places, noting changes in the complex relationship between human-made and natural environments. Why an egg? Turner’s bird’s nest experience led to a theoretical project instigated by arts Wendy Perring charity Space Placemaking and Urban Design Group (SPUD), which encour- PAD Studio, next aged a collaborative process between artists, architects and engineers to to the Egg design a temporary workspace within the New Forest National Park. The egg concept, symbolising fragility and the cycle of life, fired the imagi- nation of many. Following an exhibition where Turner had collaborated with architect PAD Studio to design and develop the idea, SPUD were keen to translate the paper project into an actual building. ‘The plan was for Stephen [Turner] to live in the egg for 365 days, as he wanted to experience all four seasons,’ says Wendy Perring, Managing Director at PAD Studio. ‘We worked closely with Stephen to define what he would need as a home and studio.’ Turner was very interested in the effects of climate change on the New Forest and the nearby Lymington Salt Marshes in Hampshire.
